Dr. Frank J. Mandarino Marks 2nd Anniversary of Offering Body Tempering® Option to PatientsNone

Rutgers is in flux heading into its bowl game. The Scarlet Knights (7-5, 4-5) learned on Sunday that they will participate in the Rate Bowl , where they will face Kansas State (8-4, 5-4) at Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona. Scheduled for December 26th, the contest is coming up quick, leaving Rutgers with little time to figure out its most pressing staff situation.Prime Minister Narendra Modi described the victory secured by the BJP and its allies in Maharashtra and substantial victories in bypolls in several States as one for “unity” and the spirit behind the slogan ‘ek hain toh safe hain’ (united we remain safe). The slogan, coined by Prime Minister Modi just before the advent of the Maharashtra Assembly campaign, spoke to the BJP’s call against the fragmentation of votes on the basis of castes, which cost the party heavily, along with the Opposition’s narrative that the BJP wanted a thumping majority in the Lok Sabha polls to make radical changes in the Constitution. Maharashtra election results 2024: LIVE coverage “The people of Maharashtra have loudly affirmed the spirit behind ‘ek hai toh safe hai’ . This slogan has defeated those who sought to divide society into castes, religion, language, and handed out punishment to those who sought to divide society. It is a strong attack on the Congress and its ecosystem that wants to divide society,” he said during an address to BJP workers at the party headquarters after Saturday’s results. “It is a victory of vikasvaad (development), good governance, true social justice and the defeat of lies, cunning and betrayal. Divisive forces, negative politics and dynasticism was defeated,” he further said, attributing the NDA’s victory to the support of women, youth and farmers. In a strong attack on the Congress, he said the Opposition party and the Gandhi family had “in their lust for power” shattered the spirit of panth nirpekshta (treating all denominations as equals) that was enshrined in the Constitution. “They espoused fake secularism, and destroyed the tradition of panth nirpekshta , sowing the seeds of appeasement and a betrayal of the Constituent Assembly of India. They have betrayed the Constitution,” he said. Mr. Modi said the Congress had “betrayed” even the Supreme Court for appeasement politics, and a prime example was the Waqf Act. “The Constitution does not have any place for the Waqf Act, but the Congress enacted this for appeasement to safeguard their vote bank,” he said. The NDA government at the Centre has moved several amendments to the Waqf Act and the Bill is now before a Joint Committee of Parliament. A big part of the Maharashtra campaign had been the Maha Vikas Aghadi’s opposition to several projects in the State and in the capital Mumbai including a project to redevelop Dharavi by the Adani Group. The Prime Minister, without taking names, said the Congress’s “urban naxalism” was “a danger to the country” with “the remote control being outside the country”. Young and professional classes have to understand the reality of the Congress, he said. “The poor and middle classes in urban areas, all have reposed their faith in BJP and given a clear message. They want a modern India of world-class cities, and has rejected those presented roadblocks to development be it metro projects, electric buses, coastal roads, airports, sanitation, etc,” he said. The other big message of the mandate, he said, was that across the country, only one Constitution, that of India, framed by B.R. Ambedkar was acceptable. “Whoever, whether manifestly or covertly, talks of two Constitutions, will be rejected by the people,” he said, in reference to efforts by the newly-sworn in government of Jammu and Kashmir passing a resolution to restore Article 370, terming it “an insult to the Constitution”. “No power on earth can bring back Article 370. This poll in Maharashtra has exposed the hypocrisy of the MVA and INDIA bloc,” he said. He said the people had addressed the “betrayal” of the Shiv Sena (UBT) in breaking its alliance with the BJP in 2019, and that the Congress, the Shiv Sena (UBT) ally, had exposed the alliance’s inorganicness in never praising Shiv Sena founder Bal Thackeray or RSS ideologue V.D. Savarkar through these years.

Pune, Dec. 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cyber Insurance Market Size Analysis: “ The SNS Insider report indicates that the Cyber Insurance Market size was valued at USD 15.3 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow to USD 97.3 billion by 2032, expanding at a CAGR of 22.8% over the forecast period of 2024-2032. ” The Cyber Insurance Market is growing significantly, owing to the complexity and numbers of cyberattacks taking place and the need for local businesses to protect themselves from financial harm in this digital age. With the ongoing digital transformation of organizations, they become more susceptible to threats like ransomware, phishing, and data breaches, thus increasing the need for end-to-end cybersecurity solutions. One of the stronger drivers behind this growth is the more restricting regulatory environment, like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in Europe which is forcing businesses to implement increased levels of cyber protection, and cyber insurance. The International Risk Management Institute (IRMI) reported that more than 60% of organizations with 500 or more employees have cyber insurance policies, an industry-wide growth trend in the adoption of such products. Secondly, the spike in targeted cyberattacks on essential infrastructure sectors ranging from healthcare and finance to energy has prompted insurers to develop sector-specific coverages for these sectors are considered high-risk. According to Aon's State of Cyber Security 2024 survey, 40% of healthcare organizations experienced an increase in cyber insurance claims during 2021, driven by ransomware attacks that both disrupted operations and threatened patient data. The market is also driven by advancing technology. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning will give insurers the ability to better evaluate risks and support dynamic pricing models. It has allowed companies to track live cybersecurity risks which, in turn, has provided them intelligence to make more informed coverage decision-making. 80%+ cyber insurance has adopted AI in 2024 according to Cyber Insurance Insights — automating risk and claims handling by cyber insurance providers Additionally, the increasing adoption of cloud computing and the Internet of Things (IoT) is also propelling the market. The need to secure interconnected systems is becoming more urgent, while demand for cyber insurance products is rapidly growing as businesses increasingly depend on them. According to a report from the Global Data Protection Regulation Survey, 70% of those small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) who experienced data breaches in 2023 would have not fully recovered without additional coverage provided by cyber insurance policies.

While TRON has rallied to record highs, there are signs it’s moving into overbought territory. 1FUEL meanwhile continues to win over TRON whales impressed by its groundbreaking one-click, cross-transaction functionality. With analysts projecting returns of more than 500% during the presale, read on for more. Is Toncoin the best cryptocurrency to buy now? Toncoin is emerging as one of the winners of the bull market ignited by President Trump’s election win in November. It’s leveraged the surge of investor interest in digital assets into a price rally, fuelled by sustained levels of investor demand. November was a good month for Toncoin despite challenges from other altcoins. On the back of that wave it rallied to a high of $7.08 on 04 December. Toncoin’s overall trajectory suggests that the uptrend will continue deeper into the month. So, is it the best cryptocurrency to buy now? Analysts are positive on Toncoin’s potential, with Coincheckup calling for a $245.88% increase over the next three months. That would take the rally well into 2025. Analysts say over six months the outlook is also very positive, with a 180.48% growth on the cards. Toncoin’s user base has also expanded, positioning it well for future growth. According to some estimates, the number of TON holders has spiked by 90% in the last 12 months to around 90 million users. Giving Toncoin a run for its money is 1FUEL, a breakout contender for the title of best cryptocurrency to buy now. It has earned significant interest and record levels of investment as crypto whales seek new opportunities. Thanks to its unique one-click, cross-chain transactions functionality, 1FUEL can offer something that no other coin can match; a pathway to broader blockchain adoption. What’s next for TRON? The number 11 coin right now, TRON’s performance this bull run has been raising eyebrows. It has successfully courted crypto whales with a vertical price rally that has resulted in 57.2% gains in the last seven days. Its current price of $0.32 has pulled back from the $0.45 we saw on 03 December. What’s notable about that is the 100x surge that got TRON to that point. TRON founder Justin Sun is a core protagonist in the rally to an all-time high. He invested $30 million in Donald Trump’s World Liberty Financial and was subsequently appointed as an advisor. This strategic move is part of a public bid to move closer to Trump after the President-elect indicated his intention to champion digital assets during his second term. Despite this, the price rally could stall – especially given Sun has been charged by the SEC . He is accused of participating in extensive wash trading to artificially inflate the price of TRON and of taking millions of dollars of profit from unregistered sales. Just as his move closer to World Liberty Financial has boosted TRON, subsequent behaviour or fall out from the SEC charges could cause price instability. While high levels of volatility pose questions for investors, the breakout privacy-focused cryptocurrency 1FUEL continues to win over whales with its red hot presale. 1FUEL is capturing investor interest with its innovative take to democratising digital assets 1FUEL’s unique one-click, cross chain transaction functionality is a game changer for blockchain technologies. By removing the traditional complexities associated with managing digital assets, 1FUEL is successfully opening up crypto to an entire new userbase which is currently vastly underserved. Its digital wallet is user-friendly and accessible, calling for nothing more complex than the user to choose their preferred coin to trade or transact. With smart AI use, 1FUEL then handles all of the complexities of the cross-chain transaction including network fees and exchange rates. This dramatically simplifies how users manage their cryptocurrency – making it more accessible, more useful and more relevant to more people than ever before. Another factor fuelling the push towards 1FUEL is its privacy-focused credentials. The built in privacy mixer, disposable digital wallet and user-friendly cold storage ensure that users can maintain high levels of security, even as accessing the blockchain becomes easier. 1FUEL’s credentials set it apart as one to watch in 2025 1FUEL’s red hot presale has already attracted record levels of investment. Investors have been won over by the unique premise and incredible use cases. With forecasts of at least 500% returns during the presale and staking rewards of up to 30% APR, don’t miss out.

Sir Keir Starmer has delivered his Christmas message to the nation, saying his “thoughts are with all those who are lonely” over the festive season. The prime minister also said he will be “hoping for peace” over the Christmas period, amid increasing instability in the Middle East , as well as thanking NHS workers and the Armed Forces. In a message delivered on Christmas eve, the prime minister said he will be “looking towards a better, brighter future for every person”. It comes as the government maintains its ‘Plan for Change’ will improve living standards, despite the latest growth figures showing the economy flatlined in the third quarter of the year. The Office for National Statistics (ONS) had previously estimated 0.1 per cent growth between July and September of this year, but it has since revised this down to 0.0 - an even weaker estimate that what was expected in the final quarter of the Conservatives’ tenure. The figures will come as a fresh blow for Sir Keir’s government, which has put economic growth at the heart of its mission. Sir Keir said its important to “remind ourselves what’s really important” over Christmas - pointing to family, friendship and “being there for one another” in more difficult times. “This Christmas, people will be travelling up and down the country. Heading home, visiting relatives and loved ones to celebrate together the hope and joy of this special season”, the prime minister said. “It’s a time to remind ourselves what’s really important. Family. Friendship. And fellowship between all people. Being there for one another – in these celebrations, as well as the more difficult times.” He added: “I’d like especially to thank those who will spend their Christmas serving others this year. In our NHS and emergency services, our Armed Forces and the churches and charities that will welcome every person this Christmas. “Because I know that this is not an easy time for everyone, and my thoughts are with all those who are lonely this Christmas. Having a tough time, missing a loved one. You are not alone. “Because as Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, the Christmas story reminds all of us to reach out to one another. To care for one another. And to look after those around us.” The prime minister said he will be “hoping for peace, particularly in the Middle East as the birthplace of the Christmas story.” He added: “I’ll be looking towards a better, brighter future for every person and celebrating the joy and wonder that Christmas brings. So, from my family to yours, I hope you have a very merry Christmas.” Tory leader Kemi Badenoch also delivered a Christmas message, saying the period is “a time for us to support all of those people who need our assistance”. “That’s one of the best things about Christmas, that it isn’t just about all of the things that we love and want to do, but thinking about other people”, she said. Alluding to the Conservative Party’s historic election wipeout, she added: “I think that Christmas is a time for us to reflect on all that’s happened in the year. “Sometimes we have amazing years. Sometimes, like when I lost my dad, we have difficult years and we’re commiserating, but we do it together.”Micheál Martin sees ‘clear path’ back to Government – and says polls ‘give Fianna Fáil heart attacks all the time’

No current member of the New York Knicks was with the team in 2021 when the Knicks suffered a five-game loss to the Atlanta Hawks in an Eastern Conference first-round series. But Trae Young is still with the Hawks, which should be more than enough to ensure Wednesday's NBA Cup quarterfinal clash between Atlanta and host New York carries with it the most intense postseason-like environment of the knockout rounds. The winner of Wednesday's game advances to Saturday's semifinals in Las Vegas against the winner of Tuesday night's Milwaukee Bucks-Orlando Magic game. The Knicks last played Monday, when they mounted a fourth-quarter comeback to edge the host Toronto Raptors 113-108. The Hawks have been off since Sunday, when they fell to the visiting Denver Nuggets 141-111. Both teams advanced to the NBA Cup quarterfinals by winning their respective groups. The Knicks went 4-0 in East Group A play while the Hawks went 3-1 in East Group C and earned the title via a 117-116 win over the Boston Celtics, who also finished 3-1. The pursuit of the in-season tournament crown hasn't noticeably motivated the Knicks, who have turned into an NBA title contender under famously all-business head coach Tom Thibodeau. New York, which has reached the Eastern Conference semifinals in each of the last two seasons after doing so just once in the preceding 22 seasons, hasn't won it all since 1973. Thibodeau channeled his inner Bill Belichick Dec. 3 when he repeatedly said he was "... just worried about Charlotte," the Knicks' next opponent, after New York clinched the Group A crown by beating the Magic 121-106. But Jalen Brunson, the on-court version of Thibodeau, acknowledged the prize money for teams that reach the knockout rounds will get everyone's attention. Players on teams that lose in the quarterfinals get a bonus of $51,497 while the eventual champions receive $514,971 apiece. "I think there's money involved," Brunson said. "So I think there's a lot of motivation regardless." As the modern version of Reggie Miller -- the Indiana Pacers superstar who reveled in being public enemy No. 1 at Madison Square Garden in the 1990s -- Young might not need any money to get motivated against the Knicks. Young was taunted by sellout crowds in New York throughout the 2021 series, but the point guard repeatedly got the last word. He made a shushing motion after hitting the game-winning floater in the final second of a 107-105 win in Game 1 and finished the five-game set averaging 29.2 points and 9.8 assists per game. Knicks fans have even taken to the road to taunt Young, who was booed at State Farm Arena Nov. 6 when he scored 23 points and had 10 assists in the Hawks' 121-116 win Nov. 6. "I hope these New York fans find their way to the exit real, real quick," Young said during a postgame on-court interview. "Boooo! Take y'all (butts) home." The Hawks were routed Sunday, but Young's flair for the dramatic hasn't disappeared. He became the first NBA player in at least 45 years to collect at least 30 points and 20 assists while draining at least five 3-pointers last Friday, when Young hit the game-winning 3-pointer with eight seconds left in a 134-132 overtime win over the Los Angeles Lakers. "My confidence comes from the work that I've put in over the years," Young said afterward.National Weather Service in Lincoln provides crucial information across Central Illinois

Live streams of Taylor Swift’s sold-out Eras Tour concerts in Toronto give devoted fans a window into the spectacle of outfits, surprise songs and elaborate stages from one of the biggest cultural events in recent memory. As the massive tour inches toward its final three shows in Vancouver early next month, feeding Swifties’ insatiable appetite has become a nightly tradition for a handful of live stream hosts based all over the world. They act as ringleaders for tens of thousands of viewers witnessing Swift’s constantly evolving show through unofficial channels. “I never saw it being as big as it is,” said Tess Bohne, one of the personalities credited as a pioneer of the Swift live streams. “There is a big idea of community (and) being present without being there.” Broadcasting unauthorized concert live streams on social platforms such as TikTok, Instagram and Facebook isn’t an entirely new phenomenon, but it’s one that’s been amplified with Swift’s tour. As their popularity grows, the streams are sparking conversations about copyright law and the delicate balance between protecting intellectual property and allowing listeners to embrace their fandom. “We’ve gone beyond art being a one-way conversation from the artist to the audience,” said Jay Kerr-Wilson, an IP lawyer and co-leader of Fasken’s Technology, Media and Telecommunications Group in Ottawa. “Copyright owners, generally speaking, are being more flexible and they’re not necessarily (thinking) black-and-white.” Representatives for the singer did not respond to requests for comment. For fans, the lines are already blurred. Bohne got wrapped up in the Swift live-streaming phenomenon nearly two years ago after she attended the second night of the Eras Tour, in Glendale, Ariz., and found herself consumed by the experience for days afterward. “(Often) you go to a concert and you’re like, ‘That was great, let’s move on with my life,’” the 33-year-old explained in a video call from Salt Lake City. “But there was something different. It was like, ‘No, that wasn’t enough. I’m not done.’” Eager to relive the high she felt, Bohne chased down the TikTok profiles of fellow Swifties streaming other stops on the tour. With little technical experience, she began rebroadcasting their videos, with credit, on her own TikTok profile. She would place an iPad playing their feed in front of her phone’s camera, and then swap it out with her other iPad when she found a user with a better angle of the concert. The crude setup initially drew a few thousand viewers, she said, and with more effort put into the productionher audience has grown to 100,000 to 200,000 during peak moments. Since her initial broadcast, Bohne estimates she’s streamed more than 110 of Swift’s concerts in a split-screen format, streaming the concert in one corner and munching on snacks in the other while discussing all things Swift with a chat room of strangers. Some fans donate cash, and her social media status has helped attract influencer partnerships. But the stay-at-home mom of three children said this is primarily a labour of love. Bohne is credited by many of her contemporaries as the one who inspired them to take a shot at hosting their own Eras Tour with live commentary. “A lot of people say it’s like religion for them,” explained Lucas Chalub, a Twitch streamer and longtime Swiftie. Chalub first experimented with hosting streams in August 2023. Rumours swirled that the singer might announce the release date for one of her re-recorded albums on stage in Los Angeles, so many Swifties sought out live feeds, which included his impromptu setup that night. “A lot of people joined,” remembered the 27-year-old sports journalist from Argentina. “That’s the first night that I said, ‘Why not do this every night?’” Chalub said he usually draws on streams from 10 to 15 concertgoers who are often aware their recordings might get picked up by the streaming hosts. Many bring power banks to recharge their devices and sometimes a backup phone. “We are not the heroes that people think we are,” Chalub added of his fellow streamers, crediting fans on the ground who do their work pro bono. “The real heroes are the people in the venue spending — or wasting — their time trying to live stream for us instead of enjoying the show.” The legality around live streaming Swift’s concerts is murky. In the simplest terms, the rebroadcasting of copyrighted music without a licence isn’t allowed, and platforms such as YouTube and TikTok have sometimes shut down live feeds mid-stream at the behest of record labels. It happened to Ammir Shar, a 25-year-old streamer from Blackpool, U.K., who saw his YouTube feed for the fourth Toronto concert yanked down while the show was in progress. Hosts say they worry about racking up too many takedown notices, which can risk permanently shutting down their channels. Usually after a live stream ends, they delete the footage from platforms like YouTube. However, they say attempts to silence them won’t amount to much. When one streamer falls, sometimes two others turn up. Copyright owners are still grappling with that perspective, especially when unsanctioned live streams can impact other financial stakes, said Kerr-Wilson. In Swift’s case, she sold the streaming rights to her “The Eras Tour” film to Disney Plus for US$75 million. Arguably, the lawyer suggested, a company might take issue with similar options on the market, such as a live stream. But even that seems to be an evolving conversation. “People have realized that social media and user-generated content isn’t the enemy, and, in fact, can be a powerful way to engage with fans and to be part of the conversation,” he said. “I think the trend is going to continue.” While Swift hasn’t publicly said much about the streams, several streamers believe she is aware of them. They also argue the vast majority of people tuning into their feeds already have an investment in Swift’s success. Last November, a group of technologically savvy Swifties launched Swift Alert, a phone app that sends out alerts for the highlights of each Eras Tour show. Inside the app, the creators also launched a game called Mastermind — named after a Swift song, of course — where fans can win prizes by guessing which of Swift’s rotating selection of outfits she’ll wear for each “era” of her performance. Using Swift Alert in tandem with the live streams, many fans tune in for the standout moments of the three-hour concert. “A lot of people compare it to fantasy football,” Shah said. “This kind of stuff brings us closer together.” With the Eras Tour set to end in Vancouver on Dec. 8, many live streamers say they’re uncertain how the future looks. Recently, Bohne experimented with a live stream from pop singer Meghan Trainor’s concert to see if there’s similar interest. While it was enjoyable, she said the experience wasn’t quite the same. Others have started streaming Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet Tour. They say her shows are closest to Swift’s because Carpenter is a natural at witty banter, performs nightly surprise songs and changes up her outfits. “I’ve considered doing a few other (musicians, but they) are more like normal concerts — the artist on the stage with a microphone in one outfit, just singing their songs,” said Shah. “It’s not something that people at home will be like, ‘What outfit is she going to wear?’” Some wonder how live streaming will look without the intrigue of Swift’s tour. Added Bohne: “No concert is like The Eras Tour.”
